How To Make Vegetable Broth With Kitchen Scraps Recipes

HOW TO MAKE VEGETABLE BROTH WITH KITCHEN SCRAPS

Steps:

• Add frozen vegetable scraps to a 6-quart stock pot. Add water and the remaining ingredients. You should have enough water in the pot where you can easily stir the vegetables.
• Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a bare simmer, and cook, uncovered, for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
• Take the pot off the stove and remove all the vegetables with a slotted spoon or a skimmer.
• Set your strainer over a large bowl and pour the broth through. Broth should be clean and clear without any impurities. You can also run the broth through a cheesecloth.
• Cool completely at room temperature and then divide into storage containers or gallon size freezer bags. Store in the refrigerator for up to one week or freeze for up to 3 months.

HOW TO MAKE VEGGIE STOCK WITH KITCHEN SCRAPS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Remove the tops/bottoms/skins/stems from any vegetables you are preparing (avoid vegetables like Brussels sprouts, broccoli, or cauliflower as they will add a bitter taste to your stock) and place them in a ziplock bag - they can stay frozen up to 6 months.
• Note: You can add many other vegetable scraps (think sweet!) - i.e. corn cobs, winter squash, zucchini, and other squash, beet greens, fennel, chard, lettuce, parsnips, green beans, pea pods, bell peppers, eggplant, mushrooms, asparagus, and herbs like dill, thyme, parsley, cilantro, and basil.
• Continue like this until bag is full.
• Dump bag into pot and fill ¾ of the pot (or until scraps just start to float) with water.
• Bring water to a boil and then let it simmer for at least 30 minutes.
• Strain water out of stock.
• Refrigerate stock up to 4 days, or freeze up to 3 months.
• Enjoy!
